Shop Our Etsy Store for Mother's Day!
Mother’s Day is in less than two short weeks!
End of school year activities keep all of us busy, even Mimi’s like me. But I wanted to let you know about a few unique items in our Etsy shop especially for Mother’s Day.
Meaningful or biblically-focused Mother’s Day cards (aka not sappy) have always been hard for me to find, so a couple of years ago my team and I created this card. The cover image is a painting by Lilias Trotter who was a missionary in the early 1900s. Her art is amazing!
There are two card options: with a message inside and blank.
We also have a card especially for your mother-in-law. The inside of the cards says “Today especially I want to tell you I appreciate your care and teaching that you instilled in your son. All your years of investing do not go unnoticed by me. I am grateful to have such a special mom to call my mother in love.” This card could be a great option for you to send to your mother-in-law to tell her how special she is to you and how grateful you are for her son.
These next cards could be great to send to a special woman in your family or a woman who has been like a mom to you! It says, “A woman attains gracious honor” (Proverbs 11:16) with the inside message: Your gracious spirit is why our family adores you and holds you in the highest honor. Today we want to say thank you for being a beautiful example of what a momma should be to all of us.
Or "The mother's heart is the child's school-room" a quote by Henry Ward Beecher. This card is blank inside.
If you are looking for a sweet little something to send, this print could be a great option for you. It says: "You will never be a perfect mother. God is the perfect parent and He still has trouble with His children!"
We also have a small number of copies of the book “A Mother’s Legacy” that I wrote with my daughter Ashley a number of years ago. This book is a collection of short stories written by 25 friends of mine (including me and my daughter Ashley) and their daughters telling the lessons learned from their moms. The book has photos of all the moms and daughters. It’s a timeless book celebrating the power of mothers. Another great gift idea.
One last always-welcomed gift for moms is a set of blank notecards printed with one of my favorite watercolor paintings of three pears that I painted years ago. Letter writing may be a lost art, but don’t you love finding a handwritten note in your mailbox? Each set contains 8 cards and envelopes.
As spring melts into early summer, may you fix your hope completely on Him, the author and perfecter of our faith. May you also remember that the days are long but the years are short.
Ever His,
Barbara
